Hi 👋

I've brought a couple of sets of make your own crackers and hoping you guys can give me some inspiration on what to fill them with.
Recipients are parents, siblings, young 20 something's & a 6 year old girl.
I was thinking the obvious silly jokes are a must - my niece like to practice her reading & last year she collected all of ours to read out.
Do I pitch it as silly tat or maybe a miniature something for the adults / a nice hotel Chocolat item and a little toy for little one.
Ideas please ☺️

Depending on budget and people's interests the things I think would be small enough but also nice to receive would be;
Make up (lipstick, mascara, etc)
Nail polish
Cufflinks
Collar bones
Chocolate
Alcohol miniatures
Small tree decoration
Pocket square
Lapel pin
Brooch
Travel toiletries
Keyring
Fidget cube
Jewelry
Hair bobbles
Small scented candle

my first year that I'm going to try this as we have like 20 plastic hopping frogs, mini notebooks and random metal 'puzzles' from previous crackers which all either have the same shite in or cost the earth.

I have bought some little ink stampers (like what teachers use but with skull and crossbones, unicorns, emoji faces etc...) and I think I'm just going to buy cheap Poundland crackers and try to add them in myself and at least its something different.

Thank you 😊
I used to love little erasers when I was small - think I even had ones that were fruit smelling - I think I'll be off to Tiger to see what I can find
